To all film fans of Charlie Chan, here is a great discovery.

This is wonderful news and hopefully this will be released for our viewing pleasure soon. It also provides our Chan family with continued hope, for the possibility of "lost" films to turn up in the future.
Thank you for your post. It was also good to see you last Monday night during our chat and that your feeling better. You were missed!
hey, hey GREAT NEWS! I hope it comes to video as well, possibly if TCM can release another DVD set with the remaining Roland Winter Chans, this would be a great inclusion.
